Chapter 44: 8. Alana Lannes
Jack starts grinning from ear to ear. When he went home. He was smirking and laughing while
remembering how Ghani talk to her. That was the first time he to meet a woman who despised him.
Most of the time his charm will make every woman falls to their knees toward him but at that moment
he knew he meet someone who can never falls to his vampire charm. When he went to accompany his
cousin Angelo, he starts giggling like a girl. He found the action of Ghani cute. She's like a wild cat,
furry and sometimes fierce.
He even went to the house of Sheri and look over the pictures of Ghani. It's the solitary place Jack
knows how to know more about Ghani.
While looking at Sheri's photo album. He grasps Ghani's picture. Her dark skin compliments the white
and yellow dress she's wearing and the way she set her hair up makes Jack dream about her walking
in an aisle.
One picture pick his interest it's the picture of Ghani cutting a ribbon. It was one of the orphanages that
Sheri and Ghani open. It was described how both of the young ladies found a passion to assist the
young unwedded mothers who are pregnant and orphan children.
Jack was overwhelmed that even though she is feisty she possesses a beautiful heart. He carefully
noted the name of the orphanage and wanted to visit as soon as possible.
The whole day Jack was whistling. Angelo was irritated and asked him. Jack didn't answer instead just
keeps on smiling like a fool. When Angelo didn't get any answer back he already realised that Jack is
mesmerized with Ghani. Angelo was irritated again by looking at his face and throw him outside his
mansion.
On the other side of the town. Ghani arrived with a bouquet and chocolate box at the office of Sheri.
"Alana, it's for you from Laurence."Ghani beam from ear to ear. Ghani was thinking At long last
someone is pursuing her best friend, and it seems an excellent guy. He keeps on sending her flowers
and sometimes wanted to visit Sheri. But Sheri always hides or runs away if she smells him.
Sheri look at Ghani with a bunch of flowers and a chocolate. She shakes her head.
"Sigh. That guy never stops, doesn't it? "Sheri asked.
"Nope, until you will talk to him. He's a nice guy I think. Why don't you give him a chance? He's better
than your husband. I mean your almost ex-husband to be."Ghani smiles and put the flower in the vase.
Sheri gets up from her seat and went and touched the flower. " They are beautiful but
It's not that easy Ghani. My relationship with Angelo is already complicated. He doesn't respond to my
private letters regarding the chant book. Even if I genuinely wanted to have someone next to me. It's
impossible. You know who I am." Sheri said sincerely while appreciating the flower.
Ghani sigh. It's true. Even if Alana wants to have a normal relationship, She can't have it.
" We better go home, let's call it a day." Ghani smiled at Sheri. Ghani doesn't want to talk any more
about the relationship of Sheri. She knows how the life of Alana with Angelo is not a good love story.
"Ok let's go home," Sheri said.
Both young ladies secured the restaurant and went home.
Laurence on the other side keep on thinking about Sheri.
"My love I will never let you go." He said soothingly while looking at Sheri and Ghani talking. Sheri
knows that Laurence keeps on stalking her but Laurence never knew that it would take him a lot of
effort to be in the good grace of Sheri.
A week passed by. Sheri and Ghani had a day off they went to visit the orphanage that they
established. When they were chatting with the workers. There were two men who arrived outside the
orphanage.
Angelo looked at Jack and frown
What are you doing here? Angelo icily asked.
"I came, to visit, my soon-to-be wife, and you why are you here? " Jack nonchalantly said.
"None of your business," Angelo said.
Both of the men were engrossed with their conscious thought. For the previous months, they've been
typically painstaking genuinely trying to see Sheri and Ghani. But the two women didn't bother to show
up. They always make sure to never see them.
Both men walked toward the front door. A worker welcomed them and sends them straight toward the
office of Sheri and Ghani.
When they arrived Angelo looked at the woman engrossed in looking at the paper while Jack
immediately embraces Ghani on her back. Making Ghani stop from watering the plant and froze. Sheri
at that time also looked up to see two men in their office.
"What are you doing here?" Sheri and Ghani asked the men in front of them.
Jack holds Ghani more "I want to see, my wife to be." asked Jack
Ghani retort back "What? Who?"
Jack looked at her eyes and keeps on embracing her.
"You, my darling," Jack said.
Sheri and Angelo were also having a stare competition until Sheri put down her pen and sigh.
She has to deal with this man sooner or later anyway. Why not deal now. That was her thoughts.
Angelo just continues staring at her. Making Sheri uncomfortable. He was so engrossed observing her
movement. Her hair, her lips, her body her frown everything.
Ghani struggled at the embrace of Jack.
"Release me at once." Ghani angrily said.
Jack shakes his head and said "No."While smiling at her.
Sheri looked at her side and saw Jack embracing Ghani.
Ghani calms down when she saw the signal of Sheri. Both of them know how these two men wanted to
see them.
She struggled to pull herself from Jack, but he doesn't want to release her. Her body was so soft, and
her smell calms him. Jack was head over heels toward Ghani while Ghani hates him. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Ghani has nonchalance pinch his side to release her. He felt otherwise like a tickle, so he gently
grabbed her hand and kisses it.
Ghani froze.
"What's wrong with this man." She thought Ghani wanted to retract her hand, but he was holding it
firmly but gently and never let go.
Ghani looked at Sheri for help but Sheri said.
"Better talk to him," She also, turn toward Angelo.
"Please sit down Mr. Fuente," Sheri said to Angelo.
Angelo snaps from his thoughts and smiled at her. He was foolish of not giving attention to her before.
He admitted he was an idiot and stupid to be thinking of killing her.
Sheri waits for him to sit down.
On the other side. Ghani pulled Jack to another room. Jack follows Ghani at the same time looking at
her hand that is pulling him.
Sheri and Angelo on the other side talked.
"What can I do for you?" Sheri asked while leaning on her chair.
"I want you," Angelo said.
Sheri sigh. "This vampire is really an idiot." Sheri thought.
"Mr. Fuente, from the moment I wed you. I've been waiting for you to act as a person for once to me.
Just for once but you never did. One time I was trying, to talk to you about Catherine. Instead of talking
to me as an adult person, you pushed me and left me instead. In the holy river. I almost died. You
embarrassed me how many times. By the way. How many of our kind did you bring in our house?
Hmm. Let me count. Oh! no, I can't even count on how many of them. You never even once consider
me as your wife. You humiliate me and wanted to kill me. Now tell me, how can I allow you in my life?
Are you not even shameful of what you've done to me and to my parents?" Sheri calmly said. There is
no hatred nor pain in her voice only the truth. Sheri has no feelings for Angelo since she is not Alana.
Sadly Alana has hoped for him to turn around. She hopes to have a family with him. She hoped that
one day he will her, but it resulted for her to die in pain.
